Male factors are projected to produce about thirty percent of all infertility problems and help them in another twenty percent. Whatever the conventional wisdom has to say about whose “fault” the problem is that the figures indicate that the responsibility is divided almost equally between the sexes. The studies initiated by the National Institutes of Health in six universities are studying the consequences of infertility-increased sexually transmitted diseases among youth. At greatest risk, are those aged between fifteen and nineteen regardless of their differences?
Production or sperm quality may be affected by congenital abnormalities and genetic lesions in the genital tract, heat, age, sperm agglutination, acute and chronic infection (often sexually transmitted infections) malnutrition, previous surgery, allergies, chronic diseases, environmental or occupational factors (such as radiation), varicose, or certain medications. These drugs include Tag met, used in the treatment of ulcer drugs used to treat cancer, and certain antibiotics (especially those used to treat tuberculosis).
Smoking also heavy marijuana and snuff in general, alcohol and stress can result in impotence or inability to ejaculate. Varicose, enlarged varicose veins of the spermatic cord are a potentially curable cause of male infertility. While this condition occurs in many men with normal, fertility has been found to be present in up to forty percent of infertile men. Half of all men with varicose have low sperm count or motility of sperm or other changes in semen analysis. Theories on the cause of these changes include heat, pressure and toxic substances dilated vessels.
Temporary or permanent damage to the male testes may occur because of a genital infection or systemic infection. Gonorrhea can do some damage in the male genital tract temporarily result in a marked decrease in sperm count. Mumps in an adult male may involve one or both testicles and can cause severe testicular damage. Fortunately, usually only one testicle and suffered serious decline in sperm count, though possibly restricted, usually compatible with fertility. Any systemic viral or bacterial infection can cause a temporary depression in sperm count. Because much of the evidence of infertility for women are more complicated and involve more risks than men, infertility testing often begins with the male. A semen analysis is a simple test that can provide a wealth of information.
